The Color of My Heart

Today is National Pink Day! Can you believe it? An actual day dedicated to my favorite color in the entire universe. (Well besides black, of course) I mean, almost everything I own is pink, my clothes, my tumblr blog, this blog, the highlight thing on my computer, my walls at home, my phone, my nails, everything!

However, as much as I love this color, over the years, I think pink (heh) has gotten a pretty crappy reputation. Ultra-femininity is constantly shamed and considered weak, but weakness and a freaking color don’t really go hand in hand. Pink was actually considered a boy color before the 40s’ because it’s the color of raw meat, or blood on a white cloth. But let’s be real, no matter what it’s associated with, pink is just a color! It holds no real purpose or symbolism!

So, in that respect, a lot of great things are pink, so I thought I’d list a couple of my favorite things appreciation for my favorite color.
